The Amarok Window
When you first open Amarok, this is what you will see, once the splash screen disappears, and Amarok has fully loaded:

Window Layout
Amarok is organized in four main areas; the toolbar and three panes.
Toolbar
The Toolbar contains the top-level menus and the track-progress bar.

Media Sources Pane
The Media Sources pane offers access to the Local Collection, Remote Collections, Media Devices, the Internet, your File System, Playlists, and Podcasts.
Need a better screenshot that shows the complete Media Sources menu too. I fail at this.
Context Pane
The Context pane is comprised of applets, which offer you information about your music. A connection to the Internet is required for the most useful use of these little applications, which will fetch lyrics, information, photos, videos, and even guitar tabs, depending on what you choose to display.
temp placeholder - attractive, with free music would be awesome!
Playlist pane
The Playlist offers you a fully-configurable way to display and control the music you are playing.
